Ok, here is version 1.

There will be 2 more updates of this theme in the coming weeks. Including new caption buttons and a shellstyle, 2 new colours, and anything else that people request and I like the idea of. I like the caption buttons the way they are but read on to find out how to get the ones YOU want in this theme.

Feel free to mod this theme, but DO NOT release it independantly. I have taken some time to think and have come to the conclusion that I will release v2 with neowin contributions...meaning substyles of personal mods that are not rips of other themes or a degradation of this one. Just send it to me, and I will include it.

I am learning the shellstyle game, so bear with me on that. I have a good one cooking thus far, but have little time between my two jobs.

I would really like it if someone would make a winamp skin, that would rock, just post screenies up and we can all decide. Lets take this msstyle to a community level...however I will be moderating what can be released.

Mr. Magoo convinced me to release and continue my public work of this theme, and has been an all around great person. I admit that I fueled fires at times, but that was due to my stress. So, less stress on me now, and hopefully less flamming by neowinians. ANYTHING OFF TOPIC MR. MAGOO WILL REMOVE. He has assured me that he will personally moderate this thread.

So, here it is:

and THE FILE - link update 19/3/04

comments are welcome if they are HELPFUL.

ALSO: Choose between 2 substyles: on a diet(thin) and fatty mcgee(thicker)

Thanks.

Unique has posted that he is looking for someone to take on this theme. Its a great theme, and it would be very sad to see it simply die. All those interested should pm / email unique.

One issue though, every other theme I've ever encountered has had the "close" button (in the top right hand corner of every window) actually work if the window is maximised and you move the mouse to the very extreme of the top right hand corner of the screen. This doesn't work in Luna Reborn. It just makes the window unactive, like you're selecting the desktop.

Is this a bug? Or by design? I find it slightly annoying because it means I have to be more accurate in my aim so I can't just flick the mouse up there and click to close.

Flaw:

-taskbandbutton/noedge is cut off at top (see pick)

Items i would like to see improved: (personal option)

-startpanel winflag on bottom right should be removed

-trackbars being defaults could use work

-square toolbar buttons dont fit into overall theme

seems like a nice enough theme,but other then a killer startpanel,the rest could use some work...

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By Case_f · Posted

      Frankly, I blame whoever is writing such articles. "A big improvement/update and/or new feature is now available to everyone! Also, use this unofficial tweak tool to enable it because it actually isn't available to you yet officially and might not in fact even be entirely ready or whatever, hence why it is perhaps not enabled for you*. But it's great and you should enable it!" I mean there's nothing wrong with sharing info about some feature you might need to enable via unofficial means, of course. It's just that these articles tend to essentially end up being two news pieces in one, and one of them tends to be a bit misleading. (*Yes, yes, the "it's a controlled rollout!" thing. Not a fan of that one either. The argument, not the actual rollout.)

      Thank you. Will do. I read in the release notes that editor config might be at play here.

    • OpenAI is making Codex more useful in Chrome and the cloud

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is making Codex more useful in Chrome and the cloud by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI's Codex now has more than 5 million users, up nearly 4x from earlier this year. To further accelerate Codex's growth among developers, OpenAI today announced that it has agreed to acquire Ona, a company that builds secure cloud execution and orchestration technology for developers. Ona will enable developers to run Codex with persistent and controlled cloud infrastructure for long-running agentic workflows. Right now, most Codex execution happens locally on developers' laptops and PCs, and the agents work continuously for hours. Through Ona, OpenAI aims to make Codex agents keep working for days without being tied to a user’s local machine or an active session. This will be an important capability for enterprises that want to deploy AI agents in production while maintaining control over infrastructure, data, security boundaries, credential scope, logging, and review workflows. Like any acquisition, the deal is still subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Until the deal closes, OpenAI and Ona will continue to operate as separate companies. After closing, Ona’s team will join the Codex team to improve developer workflows. Alongside the Ona acquisition announcement, OpenAI today introduced a few Codex updates. Developers can now save Codex rate limit resets and use them later instead of losing them when they are not needed immediately. OpenAI is also adding a referral option where users can invite a friend to Codex and get a saved rate limit reset. OpenAI today also announced a developer mode for browser use in Chrome and the Codex in-app browser. With this mode, Codex can use the Chrome DevTools Protocol to debug web apps, inspect pages, and work more directly with browser-based development workflows. Developers can use this when they want Codex to profile JavaScript, inspect console output and network traffic, examine web page states including the DOM and applied styles, and more.
